Popular Paolini Pocket Rules Back By Popular Demand. With these clever rules you’ll carry reliability and convenience right in your shop apron’s pencil pocket. The full-featured design of our Paolini Pocket Rules are the result of a close collaboration with woodworking pro, Gregory Paolini. You could say it was designed by a woodworker for woodworkers! And after toting it around in your shop apron for a project or two, you’ll wonder how you ever got along without it.

Unlike Any Pocket-Sized Rule You’ve Ever Used. No other small rule has all the built-in features of Woodpeckers’ Paolini Pocket Rule. You may have seen one or two of our features on other rules, but none that have them all. In one small rule you get:

An adjustable rule-stop to guarantee perfectly repeatable layout lines just like using a T-Square.

The rule stop doubles as a stand to set the rule on edge when using the end-scales leaving both your hands free to make machine adjustments.

An end-notch to precisely position your pencil point for marking out.

And finally, both styles of pocket rules come in either inch or metric scales engraved using state-of-the-art equipment to produce precise marks. We engrave in white on the red, anodized aluminum blades for enhanced visual clarity. We use black annealed marks on the stainless steel blades that will last a lifetime and then some. Our process delivers both the durability of engraving and enhanced visual clarity.

The aluminum blade is 1” wide x 1/8” thick and the stainless steel blade is 1” wide x 1/16” thick. Both sides have scale marks so you’ll never have to read a dimension upside down. On one side you see 1/32” marks along the top edge and 1/16” along the bottom with a 1/32” vertical end-scale. On the opposite side, 1/16” marks are at the top with 1/32” at the bottom. The end scale on this side has 1/16” marks. Metric models use 1mm marks on both sides and end scales.

For woodworkers who prefer rules with both Imperial and metric scales, we have a combination version that features 1/32” and 1mm scales on one side with a 1/32” vertical end scale. On the other side we engrave 1mm and 1/16” scales on the long edges with a 1 mm vertical end scale.

Ordering Options: Single Rules Or Get The Set And Save! Our aluminum and stainless steel Paolini Pocket Rules come in three different lengths with either Imperial or metric scales and the combo Imperial and metric scales model. Choose from 6” or 8” long pocket-sized models or the 12” length that’s ideal for bench work. Metric lengths are 150mm, 200mm or 300mm. You can order any Paolini Pocket Rule length in Imperial or metric scales individually or choose the full set of Imperial or Metric rules in either aluminum or stainless steel and get all three at a savings. The same options apply to the combo Imperial and metric rules.

What are our OneTIME Tools? They’re the tools that our partners at Woodpeckers plan to run once. Often these are tools we ourselves would like but can’t put in full production. The process is simple; they build a couple, take some pictures and open a 10-20 day window for others to jump on the production run. Once they know how many to make, they get them done and move on to something else.

By buying a OneTIME Tool, you will own a limited run precisely machined tool that will make you the envy of all your woodworking friends, and you have a tool that will be used for generations. These tools are proudly made in the USA.
